In February 2006, in the build-up to the 2006 Italian general election, he was removed from the Communist Refoundation Party (PRC)'s list of candidates for the Senate of Italy because of his support for the right of Iraqis to resist occupation, and criticism of Zionism.

When the PRC joined the current center-left government, the AMR Progetto Comunista left the PRC. After that, they dissolved and formed the Movement for the Communist Workers' Party.

He is an atheist.[1]
